As you have probably noticed, our house is equipped with electrically powered lighting. Thanks to the diligence of Thomas Edison, with the flip of a switch we can illuminate our home. It is almost magical.
Unfortunately, the magic stops just short of actually paying for the electricity we use. If you are not aware, the switches used to turn the lights on can also be used to turn the lights off. This marvel of switch technology may seem utterly amazing, but in reality it is quite simple. I shall explain it below.
Lifting the switch turns the power on, and lowering the switch turns the power off.
I imagine right now you are taking a moment to let this sink in.
Waiting.
Waiting.
Yes! What this means is that lights no longer have to remain on forever once powered! I’m sure with this new found information you will be compelled to never leave a light on again.
I’m glad we had this talk.
